Meaning: The Emissaries

Total Ayahs: 50

Place of Revelation: Mecca

Summary

Surah Al-Mursalat opens with solemn oaths by the winds sent forth, establishing the certainty of the Day of Judgment. It vividly refutes the Meccan elite who mocked the Prophet as deluded, reminding them of past nations destroyed for similar disbelief. The surah emphasizes the seamless logic of resurrection based on creation's consistency—creation attests to Creator. Warnings are paired with the joyous destiny of believers, ending with the stark assurance that denial will end in ruin and devastation for deniers.
